FYI for those in midtown, a streetcar extension vote is being organized. Get your neighbors together and spread the good word. The vote will (most likely) be for a TDD along each side of Main Street up to 1/2 mile on either side of Main ending at UMKC. For comparison, the TDD for the downtown line added around $250 to my property tax bill per year....I'd think they are aiming for a similar cost for residential homeowners in midtown. Good information here:http://nextrailkc.com/main-street/
Phil do you have your nest egg tied up in street car stock or something?
Question for future streetcar ridersWould you expect it to stop at every stop or that you would have to request a stop when riding? (obv would stop for you if you were waiting on the platform.)
phil, are you still going to feel interested when your extra $250 is really just a moving jerkoff station?
it will most likely work just like the MAX or any other bus. stop if someone requests a stop or if someone is waiting would be my guess
another option would be to plow through all the stops at full speed and see how far south they could get
I'll just stick with uber. Ztrip
